As follow-up the useful help above our local Kubota dealer (not Deere) says the following about chains on the 110TLBs front tires:
"Chains on front tires are not recommended due to clearance with the steering components and chains wont allow the front tires to slip in 4wd (causes too much traction when turning)."
We live on an icy hill, so this advice doesn't make much sense to us - what do you think? We are planning to put tires on our 4WD 110TLB - are we O.K.?
Thanks
I use vbar chains on the front of my New Holland. How you drive makes a big difference on the stress created. Gentle turns, use 4x4 only when you have to, stop if you see the front wheels spinning. You probably have enough traction with just the rear chains in 2wd. The front chains help the front wheels get enough grip to follow the steering wheel, even in 2wd.
